Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early and current relationship patterns influence emotions and behaviors, and helps clients repair and strengthen important connections. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening deeply, validating each person's experience, and helping clients find their own solutions by building on strengths and personal values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) identifies unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and teaches concrete techniques to shift thinking patterns and improve mood and functioning; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Dr. Jess-Huff works collaboratively with each person to determine the best fit based on their needs, goals, and preferences. This collaborative stance helps tailor sessions so interventions feel relevant and manageable.
Online therapy with a licensed professional offers flexibility and accessibility - sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone appointments, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different routines and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain consistent care, practice new skills between sessions, and access support from a distance when in-person visits are not feasible.
